While I agree Buzz makes some solid points, there are other perspectives. We each have our own reasons for choosing our purchase.

When picking a car, I could have purchased any kit on the market and had a very nice car while spending considerably less than I have on my FFR. The entire premise of my car is achieving the absolute maximum level of performance while maintaining the looks of a cobra. My car is more a tribute than replica. While the reasoning applies only to me, here is why I chose FFR.

The chassis was configured in such a way that I could easily make suspension and aerodynamic modifications I wanted to. This saved considerable time as compared to scratch built.

The fiberglass body is much easier to modify for aerodynamics and fitting large rubber.

It was the only combination of body and chassis that would accommodate my aerodynamic plan without a complete reconstruction.

It was the lightest combination available, especially when the fiberglass thickness was reduced to a more reasonable level.
